Bicycle Sighs

When a cyclist dies, bicycles sighs.

About Me

All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, And when they catch you, they will kill you… But first they must catch you.
I am merely tired. There is not a lot of reasoning behind this.
I am not a professional musician. I am nineteen years old.
I do not believe in a God or Heaven. I do not believe in a Devil or Hell. I do not have a human love. I do not enjoy people. I do not get out a lot anymore. I cannot read sheet music and I do not know chords. I play by ear and by touch. I have a library of over six hundred cassette tapes, over four hundred compact discs, over eight hundred vinyl records, over seventy eight-track tapes, over four thousand films, and over nine thousand pieces of literature. I have fifteen animals and own over seventy instruments. I play over ninety.
I do not see the point in making music that will make you feel good about your downfalls or what you have become.
You are not different. You are not inexplicable. You are not almighty. You are not ethereal. You are not a rebel. You are not an Anarchist. You are not a God. You are not a Daemon. And most importantly, you are not a misanthrope, a recluse, or a loner.
I have, in my personal library, from the last fourteen years, almost every piece of music that I have ever recorded. That library exceeds amounts of seven hundred and fifty thousand, not including those I have done for films. You can say I am obsessed, you can say what you please. My own music drives me absolutely stark raving mad.
All I really want to do with my music is score soundtracks for films.
My life, I think, will be complete the day someone writes a long and fully detailed Wikipedia article about my music and I, or the day that someone incorporates one of my song or album titles into their Myspace display name.
That is all that matters. No?
SHOWS
If you would like to 'book' this project to play a 'show', then do so at your own free will, and caution.
I play only improvisational sets for now, and what exactly it is that I play, I cannot account for.
I will play venues, abandoned warehouses, front and backyards, bathrooms, bedrooms, living rooms, alleys, streets, cafes, et cetera. Anywhere and everywhere that you can think of.
However, if you want me to sell fifteen dollar tickets just to play with a 'popular' band, then do not even bother.
I will never ask you to vote for me to play Warped Tour.
NOTISE
This is a solo project. I invite anyone and everyone to play with me during shows. Anyone that can or even cannot play an instrument is invited to play.
ATTENTION: LABELS AND MUSICIANS
I am currently signed to the independent media label that I began, Domovoi. I have no interests in signing any contracts. If you would like to put out an album with me, label or band, then by all means, just notify me. If you would like to collaborate with me, or anything of the ilk, then just send a message.
ATTENTION: FILM MAKERS
I am highly interested in scoring music for films. I can play any and every genre, and an extremely large multitude of instruments. I also do sound and voiceover work. If you are interested in having me do so, send a message.

Sounds Like: This is less a page for music and the people who love it, and more of a page for those who are completely and utterly sick of it.
